Trifles Retort
In class we discussed the sexist vibe that came with this story. Of course the men were sexist it was in 1916. I still find it hilarious that the women were being 100 times smarter than the men. No where did it say Mrs. Wright was the killer. If my husband was strangled in the middle of the night, I'd go nuts. I probably wouldn't have not went to get help, because that just seems suspicious, but maybe she really was too stunned to do anything. I didn't know what the word Trifles meant, and now I understand. It's usually the little things that make a big difference. People say don't sweat the small stuff, well i believe sometimes you have to worry about small stuff, details if you want to find the answers. I think when she was rocking in her chair, she may have been a bit relieved of what happened. She did laugh at something that was said, but I don't think she killed him. As the bird had suffered a harsh death, so did her husband. I feel like she is free now and though her precious bird is gone, she can be a songbird now... if she doesn't get convicted with murder.
